How instance content is structured
AION 2 splits PvE into solo-format instances, small-group instances and larger group content, with a stepped difficulty ladder layered on top. Pre-launch reporting described a redesigned Fire Temple and a Nightmare system with multiple difficulty levels, and the earlier KR/TW build used 4/8. The type map below is confirmed; community-reported numbers inside the guides are flagged separately.
Mounts work inside dungeons, so you can ride past enemies you do not need to kill — worth remembering when you are repeating an instance for one specific drop.
